Correct Answer: 11. ( b )

Solution:

  1. Given amino acid on reaction with $\mathrm{NaNO} _2 / \mathrm{H} _3 \mathrm{O}^{+}$ gives diazotisation reaction which further evolves $ -\mathrm{N} _2$ gas along with formation of carbocation. On further reaction with water, it form $\mathrm{HOOC}- \mathrm{CH} _2 -\mathrm{OH}$ that undergoes polymerisation to give polymer.
